What do you propose to replace the 10% ethanol added to gasoline with?? Productive fields generate 400 gallons ETOH/acre.

What do you propose to replace the 10% ethanol added to gasoline with?? Huh?

I guess you replace the 10% ethanol with nothing. Then you would be left with just actual gasoline.

WITH FAR LESS EXPENSIVE GASOLINE, NOT AN ADDITIVE.

Gasoline??

Recent study, 2100 gallons of water to get 1 gallon of ethanol into the tank.

“Productive fields generate 400 gallons ETOH/acre.”

Any data that backs up that claim?

That one productive acre WILL produce enough feed for 1,800 pounds of pork. ( 150 bu acre )

Which has more value?

How about nothing but pure gasoline? Much more efficient and better for your engine!

How about Ethanol from Brazil where they produce it from sugar beets for about half of what it costs to make out of corn. However, I THINK there is an tariff or duty/import tax on Brazilian Ethanol.
